connections that are accessible to all students, teachers, and other employees

inside the campus. With the increasing reliance on the Internet for various tasks

spend less on load when they are inside the campus. The school already

contributing to the local community by providing affordable and accessible

internet connectivity. In today’s digitally driven world, internet access has become

a fundamental necessity, and this project seeks to address the connectivity gap

by introducing a novel solution: Wi-Fi vending machines. Peso Wi-Fi vending

machines have made a substantial contribution to the local community in various

ways. Firstly they have democratized internet access, allowing even those with

limited resources to connect to the digital world. This inclusivity has empowered

students to access online education, job seekers to search for employment

opportunities, and small business owners to expand their reach through online

marketing.

As a result, the digital divide within the local community has been bridged,

creating more opportunities for personal and economic growth. Peso Wi-Fi

vending machines have boosted the local economy. Entrepreneurs and small

business owners have capitalized on these machines to start profitable ventures.

By offering affordable internet access to customers, these entrepreneurs not only

generate income but also attract foot traffic to their establishments, benefiting

other local businesses in the vicinity. Moreover, the increased internet usage has

3
facilitated online transactions, contributing to the growth of e-commerce and

digital payment systems in the local economy. Overall, peso Wi-Fi vending

machines have become a catalyst for positive change, fostering connectivity and

economic development within the community.

the strength of the signal, because the internet provider may have trouble or
